MLB has threatened to fine Dodgers star Yasiel Puig if he continues to wear his Vin Scully cleats, reports Bill Plunkett of the Orange County Register.

MLB sent a letter to Puig, telling the outfielder he would be fined $5,000 if he wore the cleats—which have a photo of Vin Scully on their side—again. Scully’s photo does not violate the league’s uniform policy, but the orange stripe on the shoe does.
